18 Signs You’re at an Awful Barbecue

Grilling outdoors might seem simple since it’s the way that sub-average intelligent cavemen cooked food for themselves for years, but they’re all dead now — probably because they didn’t know that undercooked meat can cause food poisoning.

Grilling meat over an open pit is a precise science that requires timing, technique and (above all else) wisdom. If the person cooking your burger or steak doesn’t know what they are doing, they could seriously ruin someone’s summer vacation worse than a persistent case of prickly heat or a trip to Branson, Missouri ever could. These are the signs you should watch out for at your next cookout.

1. The cook has no eyebrows.

2. The person cooking the meat is crying and referring to all the steaks by name.

3. They baste the meat in barbecue sauce with a paint roller.

4. They hunted the meat for the burgers themselves and advise everyone that they still might have some “rat poison” in them.

5. You bite into a burger and break your tooth on a dog collar.

6. The host keeps asking you what size roasting spit you wear.

7. It’s hosted by a cat hoarder who needs to “make some space.”

8. The invitation asks you to RSVP with your name, phone number and side dish you think you would taste best with.

9. It’s sponsored by PETA.

10. Somehow, the meat put up quite a fight as the host was grilling it.

11. The cook remarks, “You know it’s true. There really is more than one way to skin a cat.”

12. The “ham” in your sandwich is actually just a strawberry flavored Fruit-Roll-Up.

13. The host thinks Corn Pops are a side dish.

14. The cook works for the coroner and keeps joking about how he’s always “bringing too much work home with him.”

15. The cook’s apron reads, “I’d rather be killing, I mean grilling. Yeah that’s what I said — grilling.”

16. He keeps referring to the meat as “Charlie.”

17. The host’s kid keeps asking everyone if they’ve seen his pet hamster.
